The two Memorials of the State Pri,oners, addressed to his Excellency the Lord Lieutenant, were shewn to him. Upon reading them, Dr.-Tre vor says he was'applied to by the prisoners to permit . them to meet, in order to prepare their Memorials to the Lord Lieutenant, but he was not warranted to allow such meeting ; he, however, offered to them that their Memorials shOuld be sent from room to room ' for signatures, and to give every facility to signing the same; and it appears that these Memo rials were accordingly signed. Dr. Edward Tre. vor, sworn. Says he was appointed in 1798 Inspeaor and Me dicai mtviidant in the G4ol i 1 Kitmainharn. has taken the utmost pains to see that -the provisions for the prisoners were of the best quality. He has visited the gaol, since July 23d last, every day some- '' times two or three times ,a day. Visited the apart ments of ~every State Prisoner daily for several naw t its after. He afterwards, for reasons that might be _Useful to the State, fitted up an office its the gaol,'in order to see the prisoners there, rather than go to their rooms. Whilst he visited the rooms of tha pi is:int.:is, he was in the habit of conveying let ters from them to Government, and, to their friends, and communicating with . Government on. such sub ; jeds as the prisoners desired. _ When . he established the office, one of the prisoners - Mason) wished to see him. He, (Dr. 'Trevor) sent to to come down to the,office, which Mason refused, and,Wrote to him three most impertinent letters. Mason was ill some time afterwards, , and he attended him : told him, notwithstand4ig his letters, 11e should be' treated with every humanity and attehtion,.and took uncommon pains with Mason, to prevent hut hay ins anyc44s,e of complaint, as he foiind Masbn to be an extritgdinary ill-tempered man. •On a subse quent visit, after he had left Masools room (a letter had been delivered in the mean time to Mason),.he sent for witness. - Mason was then in an outrageous passion, and exclaimed against Government. Wit- Less ,was induced, by his language, to tell him, tat if he continued to traduce the Government, he would be obliged' to put him in irons; and if he were w ute. the personal langdage to him that he had ex pressed; in any,other place, that he (witness) would pull his nose; but that in a gaol both their hands Were tied. His refiedions or Government were,. for being committed to prison. 'Witness was anxi ous that this man should not suppose him to be ca pable of resentment towards him, and therefore sent to him to offer him every accommodation. His Constant effort has been to make all the prisoners as comfortable as possible; has,gone personally to both the butcher and baker to charge them to be particular in the quality ,Of•their meat and bread. Has no etnohnnent whatever, or personal advan tage, diru&ly or indirectly, out of the provision, meat, drink, fuel, or candle-light, used in it ; and never accepted of the smallest faVour from any pri soner who ever was. or now is in the gaol. Mr. Mason seems to be extremely inveterate against witness. He is a man of a nv‘St irritable and bad temper. Knows of no cause why Mason should be so inveterate against hiin, other than. that witness believes, by his attention and care, he prevented the escape of Emmet, - who was Mason's cousin, and of Russell, both of -whose escape, Mason endeavoured to accomplish. George. Dunn, one of the keef)ers, told witness, that Mason had offered him a large sum of money to procure the escape of ...nitnet, and tefers to the evidence of George Dunn. Witness desired Dunn to carry on an appearance, and to go on with the plan. - Witness reported the birctin stance to Mr. Wickham, who approved Of the plan. Was'• informed by George Dunn, that Mason at tempted to bribe him to let Russell escape—believes brat Mason knows that witness counteracted his atld therefore is hostile to him—knows no reason wh> Long shor\ t ld beinVeterate against him, other than wimess's ancfendeavoars.fo pro cure evidence against him ;,namely, its one instance, where witness traced to Long his having procured a coat to disguise Emmet on his flight. He ordered bre:ilast for the glOl at as early an hour as con ve. nient the tirst class, with tea, about nine o'clock.; the second .'class, first tea, - before they were sepa rated ; then beer and bread, and now bread and milk—the bread and milk instead of beer; at K suner's dsire... 'Dinner at four o'clock, pursuant to the dietary beef, mutton, lamb, : veal, or fish.-- Sees the pr(SviAonS,,YenerallY every day--they were good in quality. Whenever eocriplaint was trade, • , he ore'ered it to be tedified. The pickling tubs have Ordered pickling tubs fur not yet been provided. the meat; and a sate Io keep it in. The prisoners, cOmplained last . winter of want of vegetables, and believes with cause; Dunn , 'the eee!er told hini he could not get them 5 , the vege tabtes were vete scalce. Toe prisoners desired to have covers for the diihes.—Mtness got them. coers for The prison ers had table-cloths in 1;98, brit the prisoners then destroyed them. The prisoners COMplained of theattenttance al lowed to them; and particularly, that the' tia nne man who cleaned their, rooms served their victuall: this he thought improper, and therefore appointed a man for the purpose of serving up their victuals.' s The water:of the gaol lias heretofore been bad witness represented this doted., ,- ;4 sunk a pump; 'from which they have good watt' . The prisoners once complained, that there was excrement in the cistern. It was examinedand what they called excrement was Corks and potatoes; that the prisoners threw dawn from their windows, as witness was informed by the gaoler and believes witness will have the cistern covered, to prevent any such allegation for the future. The water clo sets were in a' very bad state, and witness has got them effectually repltired; each floor or comdure 'has a water closet. . The prisoners complained•of the difficulty of get ting to th,e water closet, up - on which wltiim ap pointed an additional person to open the doors, to let them. to , the privy. Is convinced the prisoners sutler no inconveniency front this ; would employ more men to this service, if necessary. The service of the victuals is as well condUeted as is possible_ in a gaol—the cook is as ckan a servant as cooks usually are; and the vi teals, considerin g the number of persons to be fed , are as well dresse d as can be ; thinks a reasonable supply of cheap table linen would be a great comfort to the 'prisoners.' Has never seen any bad bread; witness went to the baker himself, and gave him a particular charge to bake it well. • Thitsks• dividing the.: clao of prisoners, No, .(:r; into messes of twelve at each table, may safely be done ; and he will have that regulation made. Thinks the regulation of the diet for each j'3.o o f prisoners 'fully sufficient, but taking the c*.ulation of the first class of prisoners at-the, rate tner state, viz. that they do not get• more .than the value of id. each, he thinks (if that calculation is true) that Dunn the gaoler has too great a profit on the Governrnept allowance of 38: 3d. per man. Thinks the provision now furnished to the prisoners of the firsC.daSs: equal to what was given to them to 1798,- When Government allowed ss. sd. per man. There .• Was - no second class at that, time ; thlak2 Dunn :the gaoler is a very honest man, and ex tremely proper in his conduct, and therefore v,' , itoee; recommended him to GovernMent, who gave him a salary of tool. per annum. Thinks getting pickling tabs to salt the viCtuais the first and second classes, and procuring hut - fit:it:l.c ' vegetables, would be very 0 - ober, and a great'con venience to all the prisoners. Has ordered fires-in the common halls to boil eggs and warm drink, for the, prisoners As to candle-light, some addi tion.may be made to' the present allowance, and he will order it. ..As to the first class, whether there would be any objection ..to allowing them to air and exercise toee thee. Dr. Trevor 'says he sees no objection to the intinlgence'Unless Government should think it im proper to permit certain ikli.iduals to associate.',-. - !' As to those confined to solitaly imprisonment, be lieves there are State reasons for confinmg:Me. - Long ; but as to Mr. Mason, no other of the-pri soners would associate with him, from his temper and foulness of person, as he believes. And now, with an additional yard, there is malt space for all the priSoners to have sufficient air nod exercise, without permitting a general association of • them. •There are three days in the week allotted e to town visitors to see their friends, and three days tor the country visitors. Fifteen minutes are allowed to each prisoner to speak with his friends ; but 'M) pri soner is permitted to be with their friends without a keeper being present, unless by ornereof Cloveen ment.. All visitors must have passes. Fifteen minutes are 'allowed to' eac/i visitor; has always in such cases, where the nriseners have par , ticular busineSs to transad, extended their time,as lOng as necessdry.—Thinks the lower . _class of pii sonen ()Ugric not to be indulged with tea for bread:- fast ; thinks the quart of milk and bread that Are allowed to each man is fully sufficient. „Will direct Dunn never to permit the hapgman,to carry any thing to the prisoners,—He genere,ily ee 7 . amined all the ,prisoners: letters, bet in his abszmc'e, Dunn thegabler examines them. Dunn now inspects the letters. The letters are never delayed or kept back from the prisoners. -Whilst the State Prisoners have beep in -gaol, lie (Mr. Trevor) has fuel a4eandle-light for hmlse:li . , but not to the abridginee:of the prisoners' allowance. The prisOners are all in good health, (Tv he an:inked.) _ I ~ II
